TiGRNET (Tactical Ground Reporting Network)

What else can I say other than I'd like my own personal TiGRNET. Maybe if everyone had this, the way people have Onstar when one buys a new car, we could all get realtime traffic. Accident pics could also be forwared to emergency services.

"TiGRNET makes the linkage between the photos and satellite maps by using embedded GPS location information in the pictures. The display map, similar to images one can find on Google Earth, uses the camera’s GPS abilities by mapping where the pictures were taken."
